📋 Script Details

S3-compatible object storage in Rust — S3 core API, versioning, bucket replication, bitrot protection, multi-tenancy. The most-requested MinIO alternative. Requested in discussion #10488.

The blocker from the earlier assessment is solved. RustFS publishes tags but no GitHub release assets, so fetch_and_deploy_gh_release cannot be used. Reading their install_rustfs.sh turned up a stable artifact path that needs no hardcoded version:

https://dl.rustfs.com/artifacts/rustfs/release/rustfs-linux-{x86_64,aarch64}-gnu-latest.zip

Verified HTTP 200; the archive contains a single ~200 MB rustfs binary. Updates simply re-fetch the same URL, so anti-pattern 18 is not violated.

• No separate console build. rustfs/console exists as its own repo, but the binary serves the UI itself via RUSTFS_CONSOLE_ENABLE=true — 9000 for the S3 API, 9001 for the console.
• Configuration through /etc/default/rustfs (the path upstream's own installer uses), with generated RUSTFS_ACCESS_KEY / RUSTFS_SECRET_KEY.
• Data in /opt/rustfs_data/data, logs in /opt/rustfs_data/logs, LimitNOFILE=65536.
• Note: distributed mode and lifecycle management are marked "under testing" upstream; single-node is the supported path.
• Upstream's installer is interactive (prompts for ports and data directory), so it was not used directly — its logic was reproduced non-interactively.

The RustFS script is ready for testing:

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVED/raw/main/ct/rustfs.sh)"

Access key and secret key are generated at install and stored in /etc/default/rustfs. Use them to log into the console on port 9001 and for any S3 client.
Two ports: 9000 serves the S3 API, 9001 the web console. Object data lives in /opt/rustfs_data/data - back that up, or better, give the container a dedicated disk and point RUSTFS_VOLUMES at it.
Distributed mode and lifecycle management are marked as under testing upstream. Single-node operation is the supported path today.
The binary comes from the official artifact server at dl.rustfs.com rather than GitHub, because the project publishes tags but no release assets. The URL is a stable 'latest' path, so updates just re-download it.

Note: This is not in the official repo yet—it's just a dev version! After merging into ProxmoxVE, it will need to be recreated.

Seems to be an issue today going from 1.0.0-rc.1 to rc.2-preview.1.

I did manually grab that release archive and threw it in /opt/rustfs/rustfs, to no avail:

Confirmed that it's working currently on this side as well, just fysa!
